Twin Elephant, which opened about two years ago, has been quietly producing some of the best beer in New Jersey. Located in Chatham, NJ, Twin Elephant has made a name for themselves making approachable, low ABV juicy beer. Most of Twin Elephants’ beer is only available in the taproom with the occasional weekend can release.

We chatted with Twin Elephants Founder Tim Besecker about his unusual habits and he gave us a few songs for a killer bottle share playlist.

John Paradiso: Why did you want to start a brewery?

Tim Besecker: I wanted to go on a crazy journey with my wife and friends doing something I love with the hope of creating a unique, organic, and genuine destination for the community we grew up in. It gives us so they can have an outlet to learn, grow relationships, build new relationships and just enjoy life over a pint.

JP: Do you have any unusual habits?

TB: It’s probably not that weird, but I prefer to fall asleep to stand up comedy every night.
